Wiggins and Froome

I honestly don’t have much to add to this. Cycling fans exist in a continuously changing glass half full/half empty state. A French kid wins a stage and we get warm and fuzzies. Next day we witness absolute domination in a style we haven’t seen since, well, him. Wiggo and Froome’s dominance in Stage 9’s TT was so breathtaking that we can’t not question it. Add in Brad’s #Tenerific training combined with SKY’s incredibly dodgy doctor and you’re already hip-deep in humanplasma.
